LIVE: McDonald's All American Wheeler hitting her stride

Erica Wheeler's first few minutes in the McDonald's All American probably won't be her favorite memory of this week.

Wheeler had a turnover, missed her first shot, and fouled a West player. But it looks like she just needed to get warmed up.

Wheeler got her first assist of the game just moments ago at the 6:25 mark when her pass to Skylar Diggins resulted in a 3-pointer for the East.

On the East's next possession, Wheeler hit her first basket of the night--a 3-pointer that pulled the East to within 27-23.

That sequence seemed to have caught the attention of the ESPNU commentators; here at the BankUnited Center, they're running the ESPNU feed and the camera focused on Wheeler several times; the network also put up her bio.

Right now, with 3:42 left in the first half, Wheeler and the East trail the West, 27-24.
